You told me you loved me
because you found the big dipper
in my summer skin.
you loved the way
my name tasted on your tongue
and you loved the way I sang yours.
the arch of my back
reminded you of home
and the basins of my collar bones
were just right.
you told me you loved me
because I knew the best places
for impromptu camping
and because I could name the capitals
of every single state.
I told you I loved you
because I was always sad
before I met you.
